SWAMMIE Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 Anyone notice that the top of the left cup is silver while the rest of them have a BLACK reflection on the top? It looks like that one is out of place... compared to the rest of them...

Englez Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 Let's focus on "Cups and Balls"; there is a time for Meta puzzle and other things. Some puzzles were solved without the clues, anyway.

omgcolinwtf Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 after reading this "By 1911, having formulated a regular act, the young magician adopted the name Blackstone, after a cigar which he felt was a name of quality" now I'm not 100% convinced that we are following the right lead but still makes senses with the holy thing. if there is another trickster with the same name as a silver banded holy relic i would flip out Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/529592-puzzle-box-2/page/20/#findComment-588224503 Share on other sites More sharing options...
cousinIT Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 Impressive work on those shields, guys! :woot: Blackstone rearranges to nothing helpful that I've found, but there are some interesting phrases that come up: on sack belt stolen back no black set nothing more to report right now, but I would like to know if anyone can tell what's on the buttons holding the sack to the table.

SuperRob Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 Anyone notice that the top of the left cup is silver while the rest of them have a BLACK reflection on the top? It looks like that one is out of place... compared to the rest of them... That's because there's no cup to the far left casting a shadow.

omgcolinwtf Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 also, i would like to point out again that it has been almost an hour and my emails to blackstone@vanishingpointgame.com have gone unbounced and unanswered. maybe... you have to... say the write thing in order to prompt a response? maybe that's what the clue that we haven't seen yet would be addressing?

lindendragon Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 So far, we haven't gotten very far with the last one. We know that it has to do with the magician Harry Blackstone (Sr. or Jr.?), and something with the phrase "Accept no substitutes". Now, judging from the hard puzzles so far, none of them ever have directly corresponded to the answer. That means the sentence "Accept no substitutes" is a clue TOWARDS the answer, but not a clue for the answer itself. Also, keep in mind the 4 cups on the table. Does anyone know any famous Cups and Balls magicians?

I think that they may be black-holing all messages that are not addressed to in-game addresses. As I just sent a test message to blackston2@vanishingpointgame.com (typo'd on purpose) to see if I'd get a bounce. So far, nothing. It's the easiest way to stop spamming at random email addresses (although don't get me started on the SMTP protocol compliance issues that brings up).
